After listening to Irish music for 15 years I decided to learn to play the banjo. Little did I know that was the perfect instrument for me and the beginning of my addiction. Much of my life now revolves around the tenor banjo and I work just as hard learning to play the banjo as I do restoring and fixing them. Who says "old dogs can't learn new tricks"?

The banjo is in great shape, and that is the best Irish setup I’ve ever had a banjo arrive with! I’m so used to having to do a full setup. And it was a good deal for the condition of the banjo!

I (we) had a great compliment on my banjo today. I was playing a gig this afternoon and up walked Shawn C. I played with Shawn many times about 10+ years ago when I sat in with his group. I asked Shawn to sit in with us by playing the banjo. We did maybe 6 or so tunes. He was very impressed with the banjo’s set-up and sound. I told him about you and the work you had done. I should tell you that Shawn is a very fine Irish banjo player. He currently plays with a Balto area Irish band. It was a treat for me to hear it played so well. Not surprisingly, the banjo easily rang out over fiddle, cello, & guitar. You’re my hero. (Names ommitted)

Dan does some amazing work and really understands the needs of the Irish trad player. Your banjo would be in good hands with him.

He is a first rate craftsman with a true love of the Irish Banjo and it's music. Dan's a session mate of mine and he helped tweak my entry level banjo as much as he could but he really felt that I'd be a lot happier with a better quality instrument.One day he sent me a message saying "I have a banjo you'll want". He was sure right! I'm the happy owner of Weymann Style 1 34933 which you can see down below a ways, with pictures of the restoration. He'd taken a pretty sorry looking banjo and turned it into a jewel, and all at a very reasonable price. If you're looking for a square deal on a fine banjo,look no further.
